As I can see premake4 release its first 4.4 beta on 4 May 2011, and the lastest premake4 release is 4.4-beta5 which released on 21 Nov 2013. Seems premake5 is under active development, but is there any progress about release a new stable version of premake4?

The package manager of some linux distro will only accept stable release like Archlinux, and the premake script can't get run when I'm using some `new` feature (e.g. `debugdir` is avaliable only in 4.4+). It's okay for me to install a new beta version on my computer, but... it just seems weird if I want to share my project to others and I had to tell them commit the `debugdir` line if they are using an older version of premake4 which delivery from the package manager of his/her distro :P

Or, is there someway to do a polyfill?

Thanks!

I've responded to this issue on GitHub, which I think is yours: https://github.com/premake/premake-core/issues/1026

I will follow up there when I've had a chance to populate a roadmap.
